I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Microsoft (Greenville, SC) in Mar 2018
Interview
Submitted online application in mid-February. Hiring manager from one of the teams reached out to me early March asking if I was interested in interviewing for a software position so I said yes. The first interview was over Skype and was tested on some Agile/TDD terms. Then we did Fizzbuzz in Python, a code review of the Fibonacci sequence in Java and another code review of the Levenshtein distance in C#. The final interview was 3 rounds (each one person) and 30 minutes each. The first interview was coding questions regarding quick sort and max heaps. The second interview was more social and lighthearted and last I talked to the manager about any questions I had. Received offer the next day.
